Last full moon 2019 Trip Report

Post by bisho »

A night ro remember! Last Full Moon in 2019.

We all met in Sweihan wedding hall and moved as one convoy towards the deflation point where we had our safety briefing.

Support team:
Missobisho
Kamran

Drivers:
Tareq
Philip
Mohamed
Nassir
Mikkel
Geoff

We were total of 8 cars as 2 members couldn't make it. We started cursing the dunes. Convoy was set having Mohamed as the second lead and kamran as the official sweeper. We had a few second tries and a couple of stuck other than that the drivers did really well. We enjoyed a few short breaks in between our drive where we had a nice chat under the moonlight.

Looking forward seeing you all soon.

Amazing trip! Thank you MissoBisho, Bisho and Kamran.

Was nice to be guided through some second tries by Kamran rather than being pulled out. :D

I especially enjoyed the last part of the trip, cruising around the small dunes / soft sand next to the Sabkha.

Night drives. They are beautiful, they are very liberating. Although they seem a bit restrictive because of limited vision, they are very refreshing.

Loved the track, smooth and easy. Felt a bit technical in some areas which I really enjoyed. Poses a fun that I love to push my car through.
Enjoyed doing the recoveries too haha. :D

All in all, it's a joy that I would love to do often. 10/10 would night drive again.

Thanks missobisho for the drive, see you soon on the sand!
